Although after conquering Qi County and Daling, the Wei army adopted the means of blocking the news, and set up checkpoints on the various main roads leading from Qi County and Daling to Jinyang to prevent the news of the loss of Qi County and Daling from being transmitted to Jinyang.

But Cao Liang knew that this blockade could only be temporary, because the Huns on the Jinyang side would also send messengers to Qixian and Daling, and once they found out that the messengers had gone and not returned, they would suspect that something was wrong here.

As for how long this temporary period is, Cao Liang is not sure at all, it is likely to be tomorrow, or it may be ten days or eight days later, but for the Wei army, there is not much time left for them to prepare for war.

Once the Huns found out that Qixian and Daling were lost, they would definitely launch a crazy counterattack, so that the Wei army would inevitably face an enemy army several times their size, and this battle would also be the most arduous battle.

"General Cao, according to what the old man has seen, you will have no chance of winning this battle." Huan Fan said unceremoniously.

Huan Fan told the truth, although the Pingbei Army has a reserve supplement, can always maintain a establishment of 10,000 people, but the total strength of the four Xiongnu combined, there are at least 60,000 or 70,000 people, and from Jinyang to Qixian Daling, almost all of them are a large plain of Pingchuan, which is the most beneficial for cavalry combat, if the Wei army fights with the Xiongnu cavalry in the plain area, there is almost no chance of victory.

First of all, Qi County and Daling are just two county seats, both the height of the city wall and the strength of the defense, they are very weak, and secondly, Qi County and Daling are the base camp of the Huns, and the Wei army has no mass base here at all, and it is impossible to defend a city without the support of the people, relying on the army alone.

Finally, there is a more important point, the key to holding the city is reinforcements, because once you are surrounded by the enemy, you can only be in a passive defensive state, and only by relying on reinforcements can you break the enemy's siege.

As an army that went north to rescue, the Pingbei Army had no backup army, and all the battles could only rely on itself, and once it fell into the situation of being surrounded by the enemy, the situation would become very dangerous.

Therefore, it is taboo for the Pingbei army to stick to the city, and this battle must be confronted head-on with the Huns.

And the battlefield of the head-to-head confrontation can only choose the area north of Daling in Qi County, where there is no boundaries, no shelter, so Huan Fan bluntly said that Cao Liang has no chance of winning this battle.

With 10,000 cavalry to face the 60,000 or 70,000 cavalry of the Huns, and not occupy the slightest geographical advantage, this kind of battle, how to look at how to make people desperate, even if Sun Wu is reborn, Wu Qi is reincarnated, I am afraid it will be difficult to turn the tables.

Even Huan Fan, who has always been known as a think tank, calmly accepted that the defeat was decided, and obviously no one was optimistic about Cao Liang's deployment.

Cao Liang looked like a Gu Jing Wubo, and asked, "Then according to Mr. Wang's opinion, what should I do?" ”

"Withdraw your troops!" Huan Fan is categorical.

"Withdrawing troops?" Cao Liang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Yes, the only way to do this is to withdraw the troops back to Hedong County, temporarily avoid the enemy's edge, and move quickly, take advantage of the Huns not to notice, and retreat decisively, so that there may be a glimmer of hope, otherwise once the Huns chase after them, it will be too late to retreat." Huan Fan leisurely held the short beard road.

Cao Liang pondered for a moment and said: "It is about three or four hundred miles from the Great Tomb of Qi County to Hedong, and it will take at least four or five days, while the Hun cavalry only needs two or three days to catch up easily, how will they deal with it then?" ”

The infantry can't outrun the cavalry, that's an indisputable fact, not to mention the Hun cavalry who was taken to the nest, the rabbit will bite when it is anxious, the Huns know that their nest is ended, so they are not in a hurry to come to you to play with their lives, run, after all, they can't win.

Huan Fanmu said expressionlessly: "The infantry will definitely not be able to take it away, they can only let them stay in a certain city, as for whether they can hold it, it will all depend on creation." ”

Huan Fan's suggestion was undoubtedly cold, in the face of the frantic pursuit of the Hun cavalry, the slower infantry would definitely not be able to escape, no matter which city they stayed in, it was difficult to guarantee that they could survive.

Although intellectually speaking, there is nothing wrong with Huan Fan's suggestion, and when the catastrophe is approaching, it is normal to lose the car and protect the handsome, but giving up 6,000 robes at once makes it difficult for Cao Liang to accept emotionally.

Cao Liang shook his head and said: "I, Cao Liang, as the main general, will not give up any son, not to mention that there is no turning back arrow when I open the bow, since I came to quell the rebellion, how can I escape before fighting, this battle is imperative, and if I don't succeed, I will become a benevolent!" ”

"Has the general really figured it out?"

"Although tens of millions of people are gone!" Cao Liang said generously, his eyes firm.

Huan Fan smiled and said: "The general has such courage and courage, the old man is relieved, Fang Cai is joking, there is a plan, but the Huns can be broken." ”

Cao Liang didn't expect that Huan Fan's previous words were just a joke, he laughed self-deprecatingly, fortunately he didn't listen to him, otherwise he wouldn't let Huan Fan despise him fiercely, and when he heard that Huan Fan had a plan to break the enemy, Cao Liang was even more energetic, and said happily: "What is the clever plan of Mr., please speak up." ”

Huan Fan said calmly: "With our 10,000 cavalry alone, if we want to win the Huns, we will try to climb to the sky, but if there is another army that can cooperate with the battle, it will not be difficult to break the Huns by attacking the front and rear." ”

Cao Liang thought for a moment and said, "What Mr. said refers to the soldiers and horses who assassinated Shi Tianyu in Bingzhou?" ”

In fact, it is not difficult to guess, now on the ground of Bingzhou, in addition to Cao Liang's Pingbei Army, there are only Tian Yu's Bingzhou soldiers.

"Yes, if you want to win this battle, you must rely on Tian Tingshi's soldiers and horses."

Cao Liang said with some hesitation: "Now that the news from the north and the south is isolated, it is very inconvenient to communicate with Tian Tingshi, and it is difficult to get in touch, even if the contact is on, now that the Huns are in full swing, Tian Tingshi may not be willing to send troops?" ”

Cao Liang and Tian Yu themselves have no subordinate relationship, Cao Liang naturally has no right to mobilize the state army, and at this time Jinyang was surrounded by the Xiongnu, even if the Xiongnu withdrew at this moment, Tian Yu would suspect that the Huns were deceitful and did not dare to go out of the city easily.

Huan Fan smiled slightly: "Of course, Tian Yu is cautious, and he will definitely not go out of the city easily when the enemy situation is unknown, but the old man has some friendship with Tian Yu, and if the old man goes in person, he will be able to persuade him to send troops." ”

Cao Liang couldn't help but wonder, a person with a strange temperament like Huan Fan would have friends in the middle of the world, wouldn't this be a strange thing.
